Description Jan Lieskovsky 2009-11-25 13:19:30 UTC
Moritz Naumann reported multiple cross-site scripting (XSS)
flaws, present in the way Cacti web interface used to process
HTML form content. If a remote attacker could trick a local user
who is logged into Cacti into visiting a specially-crafted HTML
page, the attacker could retrieve and potentially modify
confidential Cacti data.

Comment 17 Tomas Hoger 2010-06-29 08:36:38 UTC
Upstream fix does not properly address XSS 4.  It adds validation for graph_start and graph_end, but that only happens after including include/top_graph_header.php, which may output those values without validation.
